Alexander,

Please read my post #2:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/107093/comments/2

It is written 3 times in this bug report: this is not a crash, it is a freeze/lock up.
The original title was "System freezes (possibly Gecko)", which was changed, incorrectly, to firefox crashed.
There is no crash report, No exceptions are raised, no signals exchanged, no core dump.
The debug trace doesn't show anything of relevance.
I've removed firefox and all associated configuration files and reinstalled anew. No change.
I've tried using strace to pinpoint a particular system call with no results.
It is a standard firefox install: no plug-ins, no extensions, no java, javascript only remove or resize windows.
The lock-up only happens in Gecko based browsers (firefox, galeon, epiphany). I'm using Konqueror since a week (I'm on Gnome btw), its the only way I can access launchpad without having to restart my computer every 5 minutes.

I can only guess that this is due to a background process, but I had no
luck relating it with cache cleaning.

If you or somenbody else can suggest some suitable breakpoint I can try
to debug it further.
